How long a defect stays unadmitted

Campaign numbers encode the year they were announced, so we can measure how quickly Chrysler acts once a defect exists.

Across all brands the average is 3.79 years. Faster is better, but a low figure can also mean a young line-up — read it next to the number of campaigns.

Chrysler recalls by model

Check your own car

Chrysler has 273 campaigns on record across 21 models, but none of them covers a whole model — only a production range inside it, sometimes a few weeks of assembly. So the 273 figure says nothing about any particular Chrysler: checking the VIN narrows those 273 down to the handful that touch one car, and shows whether the free fix was already carried out on it.

Frequently asked questions

How many recalls does Chrysler have?

273 campaigns across 21 models. On its own the number reflects how many models a brand sells — the response time says more.

Is Chrysler slow to admit defects?

On average a Chrysler defect is admitted 4.04 years after the car was built, against about 3.79 years across all brands. 36.2% of campaigns come five years or later.

Does a recall mean the car is unsafe?

It means a specific fault was found in a specific production range and must be fixed free of charge. A brand with many campaigns is not automatically worse — sometimes it simply reports faster.

How do I check my own Chrysler?

By VIN. Campaigns cover production ranges, so the model alone does not tell you whether your car is affected.
